Irrigation Design

Make the most of your water and money! Ensure water is being applied evenly at a rate and duration best suited for each area of your landscape while avoiding run-off and wasted water. A certified design is the first step to a system that will function cost effectively for years to come. With water prices on the rise it is important your system waste as little as possible.

Proper planning leads to a system that maximizes water, applying it evenly and efficiently. A certified design leaves you with control over each micro-climate, properly zoning water requirements of the landscape. We carefully select the best equipment from the leading manufacturers for your application when we do a design.

Irrigation Installation

Professional installation of your irrigation system starts with proper planning and design. Landscaping involves a substantial investment and can have a dramatic effect on your property value. Our team will ensure that your system is customized to the design and layout of your yard, providing proper coverage to you lawn, garden, shrubs and other greenery. This process ensures that you can enjoy a lush, green outdoor space while maximizing efficiency and preventing wasting excessive water where it isn’t needed. 

Make sure your system gets installed right the first time and avoid unnecessary maintenance and costly alterations. We select the best equipment from the leading manufactures from local suppliers to build a system that is best suited for your needs. We know the correct installation techniques for all types and sizes of systems. Point source and micro-jet drip systems for small planter boxes and hanging baskets to large in-line drip systems for hedges, shrubs, and trees. Rotors for large turf and hydro-seed areas, or spray sprinklers for small and intricate lawns. We will ensure your equipment is installed the way the manufacturer intended, extending its lifespan and reducing maintenance. Back-flow prevention and points of connection, pressure regulation and filtration, control valves and boxes, electrical wiring and controller mounting, we can install it professionally. Mountain Home Services irrigation installation does not end once the pipe is in the ground. We provide you with all the information necessary to maintain your sprinkler or drip system and demonstrate proper operation to save your water and money.

Irrigation Blow-out & Winterization

Servicing your irrigation system with the changing seasons is essential to preventing issues and ensuring a long life. We offer Spring startups to make sure everything is in working order and address potential problems before they happen. As winter approaches we provide blowouts, an extremely important process to avoid broken pipes and costly repairs.

Avoid time consuming and costly repairs! Using a improperly sized compressor or exposing the system to higher than normal pressures will damage equipment. Have a certified technician with a high volume compressor capable of removing water from elevation changes and long pipe runs perform the blow-out and winterization of your system. The expansion of water into ice is very powerful. Expanding ice will break through almost anything, including thick metal and PVC fittings. Without a proper irrigation blow-out, ice will destroy spray bodies, rotors, valves, fittings, and pipe if they freeze.

The results of an improper blow-out are extensive and costly repairs and renovations. A Mountain Home Services blow-out ensures your system is ready for the harshest winter, while minimizing the stress compressed air has on the system during winterization
